Arabs, really, are masters of weasel words. Hamas leader Mashaal agreed to the Palestinian state, but not for a Jewish state. In effect, Mashaal accepts the 1967 borders for Palestine for now, tolerates Israel de facto, and reserves the right to seek expanding Palestine to the Mediterranean.

Hamas leader-in-hiding Mashaal offered Israel the sweetest terms yet: Hamas and Israel should mutually agree to refrain from attacking each other’s civilians. A small print in Mashaal’s offer to Israel is that Hamas guerrillas are indistinguishable from Palestinian civilians and hide among them.

Hamas offers Israel truce

admin — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 17:32:54 +0000

which should include both Gaza and the West Bank. Israel rejected the offer because Hamas would use the truce to reinforce its arsenals in Gaza and take over the West Bank in the absence of Israel’s military there.

Peres rejects Hamas offer of truce

admin — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 18:59:11 +0000

Hamas offered Israel a cease-fire. No Islamic organization can honestly sign a peace deal with non-Muslim state in the “Arab land.” Peres declares no negotiations are needed: just stop firing at Israel and Israel will stop firing back. Why don’t Peres apply the same logic to Fatah and end the peace process? Every time Hamas stops firing at Israel, the groups affiliated with Fatah break the cease-fire, prompting Israeli retaliation against Hamas.

Sderot municipality files a petition in the International Court in Hague accusing Hamas’ leader Meshaal of crimes against humanity, namely of killing Sderot residents.

admin — Mon, 16 Jul 2007 22:44:15 +0000

Israel closed commercial crossings into Gaza to put pressure on Hamas. Hamas will not abandon Palestinian political scene, and Israel doesn’t want Hamas to re-unite with Fatah. Thus, the pressure is without purpose.

admin — Sun, 15 Jul 2007 19:56:56 +0000

Hamas also have to show its sponsors that it didn’t abandon the anti-Zionist stance. Hamas will continue fighting Israel unless Israel allows Hamas to build an economically viable society in Gaza.

IDF proclaims Hamas moderation

admin — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 17:27:22 +0000

As I have argued all along, Hamas moderated immediately after takeover of Gaza. Burdened with governmental responsibilities, Hamas cannot afford Israeli retaliation. Complying with its pan-Palestinian agenda, Hamas still allows Palestinian Islamic Jihad to initiate low-level attacks on Israel.
Israel, however, insists on isolating Hamas and enhancing ties with Fatah – a powerless conglomerate of gangster organizations which terrorize Palestinians far more than Israelis. Israel resumed security discussions with Fatah which floundered after the start of the Second Intifada in 2000 and ceased with Hamas’ victory in Palestinian elections.

Hamas offers to stop firing missiles into Israel

admin — Fri, 01 Jun 2007 23:46:41 +0000

The cease-fire should end Israeli assassinations of Hamas militants. Mashaal didn’t elaborate whether he wants Israel to stop targeting Hamas politicians, as well.
During the previous cease-fire, Hamas refrained from shooting Kassam missiles into Israel but relegated the job to Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade and other non-political groups.
Islamic groups commonly shed responsibility by branching out militant groups. Muslim Brotherhood initially made Hamas a separate organization for the Brotherhood to remain peaceful organization. Now that Hamas became a political organization, it also poses as moderate and relegates suicide bombings in Israel and Kassam launches to militant groups like PIJ and Al Aqsa.
